Agreed. I think at this point Tony took the gig to save up for his kid's college fund. I'm ambivalent about the CNN move as well. Why didn't CNN just pick Zimmern instead? He seems more a fit with the target audience of the CNN demographic.

New series Bourdain is narrating featuring David Chang. Pretty good so far.

I read that he's now headed for Rangoon to film his first installment for CNN.

Brilliant episode. Loved the Brooklyn Fare/Eric Ripert segment. Great sign off too.

It's been funny seeing pics of Bourdain on David Choe's Instagram feed. They've been hanging out together. Really funny seeing pics of David Choe's mom and Anthony Bourdain together.

Is the frequent hang-out thing partially because of their mutual interest in the Lucky Peach magazine? Speaking of which, those recipes published within the three issues should be a personal project worth trying in the kitchen.

I have no idea how it came about. It wouldn't surprise me if it was through Lucky Peach. You should follow David on Instagram and/or FB to see those pics.

David Choe is apparently friends with David Chang (not to mention they look like they could be twins), so I'm guessing that's how they (Choe and Bourdain) were introduced.

bourdain is on another show called "the taste". it looks like a food version of "the voice" show. the judges do a blind taste test.

it seems like one of the sponsors is best foods.

Show is interesting, Playing up to the camera is kinda annoying.
The first idiot from Vegas was sure to fail " Taste Awesomeness" loser.
